Hey, that was fast...
I ordered the new Limited Edition Geophysic True Second blue dial about 10 days ago and (surprise!) it arrived from the Manufacture today.
This is the second internet limited edition from Richemont this year. The first was the Panerai Pam731 with a blue dial earlier this year -- I bought that piece also.
I continue to have a great relationship with several of the boutiques and can't imagine breaking away from the attention and service but I think embracing the new channels is inevitable. I can say the staff over the phone was extremely professional as well but there is something really nice about the tactile experience in the Boutique.
Details:
- Houses the automatic Calibre 770 with dead beat seconds, 36 jewels, 28800 bph featuring a Gyrolab balance
- 39.6mm diameter and 11.8mm thick
- Stainless Steel
- 100 piece limited edition
Looking forward to some wrist time.
Dave

Congratulations, enjoy!
This is the most desirable version of that model, and I think it's what the True Second should have been from the beginning (i.e., more invention, less tribute). While blue is very popular at the moment, I don't think that it will lose its appeal with tim...
Big congratulations Dave for your new blue Geophysic. The perfect gift, on time, to enjoy for Christmas
Wear it in the best of your health. Best wishes Alkiro
Congrats Dave
I always loved the original True Seconds with the silver grainy dial but I always found that watch to be a bit too classic / dress watch for my needs. This one looks a bit more casual, is that true in the flesh? Enjoy
The delivery of both this one and the Panerai were super efficient. Watches came within 10 days of ordering and the ladies on the phone were knowledgeable...
Communication was great via email with tracking as expected. 14 day no questions return if not happy.
Congrats and wear it in good health.
That really was fast. Good on JLC. That blue dial looks really nice, I would love to see it in person.
It is nice that the pieces are ready to ship prior to the marketing.
I hate months of waiting that often occurs often following introductions after the fairs in particular.
Agreed 100%.
I absolutely hated the way that Omega handled the Trilogy. It took 7 months over what they promised. Bravo to JLC.
Great piece to enjoy - congratulations!
What made you pull the trigger with this one? The way it was sold or limited issue or dial color? Or were you after the true second in general? Cheers Kolosstt
Blue
I have the Geophysic True Second with the light dial and the Universal. I like the watch, the movement but it is the blue dial that grabbed me.
Thanks for sharing your experience Dave!
A very nice watch and the packaging seems faultless, with a very fast delivery! Well done JLC! Best, É.
